Course architect, Bob Von Hagge & Bruce Devlin were never offered a more beautiful site in their worldwide design commissions than the rolling hills at Crockett Springs. Now, the hills are alive with golf. Iron shots and putts are fired with the same intensity and accuracy as the musketballs and arrows leveled on this exact site when it was settled in 1786 by Davy Crockett's family.

The challenge of our course is evident in its differing personalities. It can be rewarding yet demanding, even smiling and tempting when addressed from the membership tees. However, a sleeping giant is awakened when the more adventurous low handicap golfer moves back to the tournament or U. S. Open tees with tournament pin placements on the contoured greens.

With our commitment to a limited membership starting times are not required. The only distraction you may experience on the course is waiting for several deer and their fawns to cross the fairway, bob white quail calling their mates or pausing to watch a flock of Canadian honkers or mallards pitch in on the course lakes signaling the change of season.

Nashville Golf & Athletic Club received national acclaim when our Signature Par 3, hole number 6 was selected by Sports Illustrated as one of the 18 greatest golf holes in the country. Golf Digest "USGA rankings list of hardest U.S. courses" we are listed at #16 in the country.

A deep bunker in the front and a broad bunker at the rear protect this green which is highlighted by a severely sloping putting surface. A long, high tee shot is required to put the ball close to the hole as there is no chance of a run up shot being effective. The green must be read properly to have any chance of making a birdie. Par here is a common score.
